Protests following the killing of George Floyd

Where are they taking these people and what are they doing to them? Are any lawyers getting involved to , you know, protect their basic human rights?

So ill be honest guys. After burning myself out a bit following the protests non-stop for the first 2-3 weeks I sort of took a step back due to various factors. Can anyone give a really high level overview of what has happened in the last ~month regarding the protests? Have they fizzled out a little or still going strong?

They haven't fizzled out, they are just peaceful so the media doesn't report on them anymore. This is the same thing that happened 6 years ago, 4 years ago, 2 years etc.
 
How dumb can a subject be, this is not some elaborate behind the door scam, this is leaders doing all this in broad daylight captured by national TV.

Yet somehow they'll magically win the next election

Sometimes you wonder
 
:nervous: I’m not clicking any daily mail link.

It’s good to see protests haven’t stopped. Hopefully they can stay peaceful though as it just gives ammo to the repubs if there’s trouble.
 


Trevor Noah has been really good on BLM. It's great that he's putting the spotlight on the Breonna Taylor case.
 
It isn't the full video though. I wonder if there's body cam video of the kneeling and the actual death.

Floyd was definitely under heavy influence of narcotics and resistive from the get-go. The initial officers did try to accommodate him as much as they could (without jeopardizing their safety and effecting an arrest). You can hear Floyd saying he wanted to lie on the ground, and they did while waiting for paramedics. But they should've sat him up on the curb if he was not resisting. I think they have a slight chance of getting charges dismissed. Their main fault was not intervening and stopping Chauvin from continually kneeling on Floyd's neck.

I cant believe what I've read. I might always try to look from the other side most of the times but it's clear as day in Floyd's case it's a cold blooded manslaughter at worst. Those cops are animals, even animals have heart man.

8 minutes is a looong time you'd be bored sitting on a chair watching porn let alone kneeling on someone's neck with everyone watching and telling him to stop.

If that's not murder than i dont know what is murder.

I mean come on man. I know you're a cop but come on

I don’t disagree but it’s up to the court system now to determine if the primary officers (not Chauvin) were cold blooded murders and just as culpable as Chauvin. Which is why the full bodycam video should be seen if available.

"Does the Bible defend my right to keep and bear arms?"

Insane how Evangelicals and xians in the US have managed to hijack religious scriptures.
